Oh cool, so with increasingly stringent SSL requirements, we're basically entirely phasing out the ability to run a website without a certificate authority's involvement.

So instead of all this bullshit from Chrome, Firefox, et al., can I please just send some huge check to GoDaddy or Verisign or whomever and continue to use the internet as an open platform and not some managed service where we try to hold everyone's hand because we've conditioned them to spew their personal information all over the web all day?
